How do I become an egg donor?

In order to become an egg donor there are specific requirements set out by the Human Fertilisation & Embryology Authority (HFEA) and London Egg Bank. Egg donors, therefore, need to meet the following criteria:

Be between the ages of 18 and 35 years

Be a non-smoker

Be fit and healthy with a BMI between 20 and 30

Have measurements of ovarian reserve (an indication of egg supply) within the normal range

Have no previous history of low ovarian response to ovarian stimulation for IVF

Have both ovaries in place

Have no personal history of transmissible diseases

Have no personal or family history of inheritable diseases

Have no untreated polycystic ovarian disease

As of April 2012, egg donors are now compensated with a fixed sum of £750 per cycle of donation. Where a prospective egg donor does not complete the cycle, the clinic may compensate the egg donor on a ‘per clinic visit’ basis at the rate of £35 per visit to the clinic.
